I'd run top or htop after booting with it open so I could see what is spiking maybe.
Then I would look in /var/log maybe Xorg.0.log or Xorg.0.log.old and see if any video error messages and maybe look through dmesg files for good measure.
Just a suggestion jmandero.Linux Registered User # 475019

What kernel are you running as 2.6.38 seems to be "troublesome". You can find out by running
in a terminal. I think Ubuntu keeps at least one previous kernel in the grub menu.Code:uname -r
